https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7151

           Summary: rsync does not work on virtualbox shared folders
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.0.7
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned at samba.org
        ReportedBy: andypiper at apache.org
         QAContact: rsync-qa at samba.org


rsync does not work with shared folders on virtual box (www.virtualbox.org). I
am running an Ubuntu 9.10 guest on a Windows 7 host and in particular it does
not like rsync trying to rename on to read-only files. However, making the
target file writable first, does work and this patch achieves that.
